Training Resources scouters:
- AB506, mandated training and livescan. The state of California adopted additional youth safety requirements in the form of California Law AB 506 (“AB506”) and it takes effect January 1, 2022. Please know that AB506 requirements apply to ALL youth service organizations throughout the State – not just Scouting. Also, it is separate from and in addition to BSA Youth Protection Training and thus further supports our mission to protect youth in our program. Scout Councils in California worked together to create the California Scouting web portal (www.CaliforniaScouting.org). This is your point of reference to help answer AB 506 questions and to connect you with the resources needed to comply with the law. As additional information becomes available the website will be updated. The law requires employees, administrators, and volunteers of youth service organizations to complete the state of CA training and undergo Live Scans. All registered BSA volunteer positions, administrators and employees including camp staff must comply with AB 506. In addition, regular volunteers, as defined by AB 506 (see FAQ page.) must comply.
